Yeovil Town quietly gained another point tonight - but probably needed more than that as they had to settle for a goalless match against Watford at Huish Park. Nil-nil draws involving Gary Johnson's sides are usually as rare as hen's teeth, and that was the first since the mid-October home game against Brighton and Hove Albion, still leaving them bottom of the division despite Barnsley's defeat tonight.

Both sides could have won the game, with Ishmael Miller and Alexander Merkel having goals ruled out for offside during the first half. In play that wasn't interrupted by the linesman's flags, Shane Duffy produced a couple of brilliant blocks to deny Hornets top scorer Troy Deeney. At the other end, Tom Lawrence was a thorn in Watford's side with some excellent running down the flanks, forcing Manuel Almunia into a strong save on more than one occasion.

In truth though, far too many shots from both sides went wide of the goal frame, and the longer the game went on, the less either keeper had to do. The end result was a 0-0 draw that was "okay", but in reality wasn't quite what everyone wanted as Yeovil remain bottom of the Championship table, and currently six points from the safety line.
